Summary: Applications of cellulose nanocrystal dispersions can reduce cold damage in apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) and sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.). Reductions in cold damage are related positively to CNC concentration. Protection can last at least 1 week. CNC treatment does not affect flowering time nor fruit set.
